Andrew McKinney, second son of Joseph MacKenzie, was born near Newburg, Cumberland Co., Hopewell township, Penna. At the period of the Revolution he was a young man. It took but a spark to kindle the flames of patriotism in his breast, and he betrothed his life to his country. The first patriots had fallen at Lexington, the blood stained field of Bunker Hill still bore the marks of carnage. Volunteers were called and he joined Captain Peebles' company, afterwards rising to the rank of sergeant in Captain Matthew Scott's company, State Regiment of Foot. He was mustered in May, and began a long, tedious journey to the coast. On the last day of that month the camp at Marcus Hook was reached, and tents were pitched three miles from the river. Two large tents were provided for the company. Lying on the ground with a piece of paper on his knapsack, be wrote letters to his favorite brother, Samuel, which are preserved by the family of David McKinney, of Peoria, Ill. He enclosed loving messages to his parents, who were well advanced in years, and gentle hints regarding his sweetheart. The impatient lover received but one letter from "Miss Ann" and bitterly lamented the uncertainty of the mails. In a letter of June 11, 1776, he says "By the privateer Wasp which sailed up the river on Sunday, we are informed that there are two men of war now lying in the bay, the one the Liverpool, the other the Kingfisher. If they do but come up the river they will undoubtedly meet with a warm reception, as the men on board the van galleys are in high spirits and think they will be able for them. By 73 private letter from Quebec we are told, that our men have recovered a large number of the prisoners taken from them, and have taken some, of the enemy." On Aug. 16 he writes: "I expected by this time to have something of consequence to inform you, but we were disappointed. The English had determined to land on Long Island the night before, but we were well informed of their scheme by deserters from them. We had orders to be in readiness any minute of the night and march against them, but a very severe rain storm prevented them from coming, and saved them a very good dubbing to boot. The number of troops that are here are about fifty thousand." From Brunswick, July 9, 1776. "We arrived safely at this place last night, with part of the first and second battalions. Captain Irvin is not along. The detachment of our company is joined by Captain Peebles. Eleven thousand of the enemy landed on Staten Island without much opposition, but it is expected that they will not get away in the same manner, as a large number of our forces have arrived at Amboy ready to oppose them, and our men are all well and in good spirits to think they are so near the enemy. They had a small encounter but I cannot learn the particulars concerning it. I had the offer of a lieutenancy, but I did not think proper to accept it, as there will be a vacancy in our own battalion soon. My love to all inquiring friends, I remain, dear Sam, your loving and affectionate brother, Andrew MacKenzie." He writes from Marcus Hook: "I would remind you to set the Still agoing, if you possibly can, and still all, your wheat, for I am persuaded it is the only way you will get a price for it. Whiskey sells for four shillings and six pence per gallon, and five shillings for cash in this place." To this his brother Samuel replies on July 29, 1776: "I have hired a stiller and he has the still going, but will not still any for ourselves until after harvest, as the weather is very warm and we have enough to do for the country. As soon, as the weather gets a little cooler, I will begin and still all the grain we have, and if the price holds good then till seeding is over, I will try and go down with a wagon load to sell." August 6, 1776, Samuel says: "I begin to long to 74 hear from you, knowing that you are in such danger and daily exposed to new accidents which ought to incite you td beseech the God of Heaven to protect you from all danger, for it is only He who can direct you, therefore look to Him to guide you in all things, that He may be with you in life and in death, or whatever may be awaiting you, ought to be your earnest cry unto Him. I hope you will conduct yourself with courage and resolution." The brothers evidently did not live near each other. Samuel was at home, with his parents, but speaks of "Brother William having his children inoculated for smallpox, but we have not heard how they are. Brother Joseph is here yet, but is to set off next week again. Brother David is at work at Patrick McFarlane's. Dear Andy, don't think too hard of me, as to think I have forgotten you, for when I forget you it will be when I have forgotten myself. Miss Ann desires you to write to her. Our father and mother send love to you." The last letter from Andrew MacKenzie was dated Aug. 16, 1776, and as he is not mentioned by his father in his will in 1782, it is presumed he was killed in battle or died from the effects of the exposure of his life in camp. 75 CHAPTER VI. DAVID McKINNEY AND HIS DESCENDANTS. c. David McKinney, third son of Joseph MacKenzie, was born in 1746, near Newburg, Hopewell township, Cumberland Co., Penna., died March 19, 1819; married about 1785 Jennet Smith, born 1752, died April 11, 1843, aged ninety years, and is buried beside her husband in Hanna's graveyard. She was a daughter of Abraham Smith, whose father John Smith came from Ireland at an early date, settled in Chester Co., Penna., where he died. His son Abraham Smith married Ann Wilson and came to Cumberland Co., Penna. He had ten children: Jennet, John, Joseph, Abram, Isaac, Jacob, Susan Ann, James, Samuel, Wilson, eight of whom married. Jennet was married at 33 years of age, and rode horseback at ninety; in all respects a superior woman. Joseph MacKenzie owned four hundred acres of land which he divided between his two sons, Thomas receiving the eastern side of the plantation, David the western side. They were married before the death of their father and built, houses on the estate prior to his decease. To each he bequeathed that portion of the homestead land on which he was then living. Like his brother, David McKinney was given all the advantages afforded the early settler, when the Indian question was the darkest problem of the age, and the county wrung with sorrow and distress, following their cruel invasions. He was strong and brave, full of vigor that makes sturdy manhood. In him was fully developed the piety of his Covenanter ancestors, with all the firm, zealous earnestness of the Scotch-Irish. He was a member of the Middle Spring Presbyterian church, and one of its most influential adherents. When the Conodoguinet creek was impassable because 76 of high water, he gathered his little family about him on the Sabbath day, and instructed them, setting before them a worthy example. He was a wise disciplinarian, and taught his children the elements of courtesy, hospitality and all that serves to establish a generation of cultured men and women. He rigidly enforced the laws of his home, yet yielded the absolute control of his sons and daughters to the discretion of his gentle wife. The log house he erected was replaced by a stone dwelling for which his sons hauled the stone, and made it substantial, with all the conveniences of the home of a hundred years ago, within three miles of Newburg. His farm was not divided until after the death of his son Joseph, when the land which had accumulated to the number of upwards of five hundred acres, was distributed to his heirs. His son Abraham Smith McKinney and his daughter Ann McKinney received the mansion farm house and surrounding land. The children of his son Joseph McKinney received 168 acres and another house on the same farm. Its fertile fields stretch along the northern side of the valley, almost touching the foot of the mountain, yet the name of McKinney is extinct in that section of the country. A post office by the name of "McKinney" has recently been located in the vicinity of the old homestead, to perpetuate the well known title of the family. Issue: II. i. JOSEPH McKINNEY, b. 1787; m.

[Image] INTERIOR OF THE ROCKY SPRING PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH 85 CHAPTER VII. AGNES McKINNEY AND HER DESCENDANTS. d. Agnes McKinney, seventh child and second daughter of Joseph MacKenzie, was born near Newburg, Hopewell township, Cumberland Co., Penna., died April 9, 1783. About 1765 she married William McCord, who died September 9, 1806, son of John McCord, who was one of the earliest settlers of central Penna. "As early as 1750 the names of John, David and William McCord appear on the tax lists of Derry and Hanover townships, Penna. In 1756 the McCord Fort stood in the settlement of Conococheague. In the same year it was burned by the Indians, and twenty-seven persons were either killed or carried into captivity. No authentic record of the family exists beyond their settlement in Sherman's Valley now Perry Co., Penna., when they built their house prior to the Indian War of 1755-1763. It was standing a few years ago, and bore in it the marks of bullets fired by the enemies of the white man." In this valley dwelt the families of Robinson, Black, Moorhead, Fisher, Crawford and McCord who intermarried at an early period. Their farms were located on the west side of the Susquehanna river, along the Swatara and Manada creeks. The most desperate Indian outrages were perpetrated and at one time the valley was almost deserted by the settlers. After the French and Indian War, the savages moved on, and gradually the old Scotch-Irish families returned. Some of their cabin homes were not destroyed, but the majority were in ashes. That of the McCords escaped the fire and hatchet of the redskin. "In the burial grounds of Derry, Hanover, and other of 86 the Presbyterian churches of central Pennsylvania, lie the remains of many who bear the name, and who are doubtless descendants of the original families that here settled, and who were closely connected by ties of blood." William and Agnes McKinney McCord spent their married life in Sherman's Valley. He was thrice married. The race of McCord was strong, active in all the prominent pursuits of life, ardent in filial devotion, and earnest in the furtherance of christian living, intermingled with the McKinney blood, gave to their descendants traits of character pure and ennobling.

Joseph McCord3 (Agnes McKinney McCord2, Joseph MacKenzie1) was born January 9, 1766, in Sherman's Valley, now Perry Co., Penna., died February 7, 1813, at North East, Erie Co., Penna.; married Elizabeth McCord. In the spring of 1797 Joseph McCord and his brother-in-law Thomas Robinson, followed the tide of immigration to the borders of the great lakes, with a view of forming a permanent settlement. A few settlers had been there for some years, but it was a wild country, forming a part of Allegheny county, not then organized into Erie county. 87 Through the summer of 1797 they located their claims and built their log cabins. The following spring they brought their families from Cumberland Co., Penna., to their new homes, a distance of three or four hundred miles, traveling on horseback, the children borne in the arms of their parents. Their goods were shipped by boat, up the Allegheny to French creek, then to Le Boeuf, now Waterford, from which they were sent by wagons to their destination. Joseph McCord with Elizabeth his wife, and two children, Eliza and William, with others of their kindred, soon made their cabin homes ring with joyous contentment, and converted the uncultivated waste into a garden of beauty. Erie county has been the place of residence of his descendants for more than a century, some of whom reside on the shore of the lake. He was a man of strict integrity, great in excellence of thought and action, of refined manner and speech. He was eminent for piety, and with his brother John and brother-in-law Thomas Robinson, was one of the first elders of the Presbyterian church of North East, which. was organized in 1801. They were ordained to their office in a grove on the banks of Sixteen Mile creek. The public road from east to west through the township, now known as the Lake Shore road, runs by the farms and homes of the sons of Joseph McCord. Issue: 9. i. ELIZA McCORD, b. June 1, 1795; m.

In the year 1800 he took his wife and two oldest children 88 over the mountains on horseback, to the shore of Lake Erie, where his brother and sister had lived for two years. The country was beautiful but wild. He erected his log cabin with its outlook towards the lake. Although primitive in style, it was the abode of peace and prosperity, and was later replaced by a commodious dwelling house. He was a farmer and had a tanning and shoe establishment on his farm. He traded with Pittsburg, and boats on their routes to Buffalo and Niagara Falls, were filled with produce to be exchanged for flour, coffee and tea. He was postmaster at North East, and one of the first elders of the Presbyterian church, organized one year after the date of his settlement in Erie county, and services were held in his tan house. His character was exemplary, and he was esteemed as one of the most consistent of men. His wife had a great degree of mental strength, and earnestness of purpose. At one time she nursed two of her children through scourges of smallpox, at a pest house. On another occasion she stopped the jockeys from racing on the Sabbath day, on the road leading through their farm, by standing in the middle of the track and impeding their progress. She often rode on horseback, eleven miles to church, taking two or three children with her on the saddle. She was hospitable and ably assisted her husband in every pursuit of life. They are buried at North East. Issue: 16. i. WILLIAM HARKNES McCORD, b. July 4, 1796; m. Julia Hall. 17. ii. ANNE McCORD, b. Oct. 19, 1798; m. George Hampson. 18. iii. MARY McCORD, b.

They were consistent, stalwart, intelligent people, noted for their strict integrity and uprightness of purpose and action. The times were those in which men and women were in positions of peril, when the strongest characters were put to the most severe tests, and, in the blood which ran in the veins of the McCord-Blaine ancestry, was not a drop that was not full of courage, unflinching loyalty to home and country, and reliance upon the guidance and protection of divine providence. They lived in a manner that commanded the utmost veneration. Without the conveniences of modern life, but with all the comforts necessary to their welfare, they kept in touch with the outside world, taught their children to be honest, honorable and just, laid before them the Bible and catechism, and gave them the best educational advantages that could be obtained, and amidst discouragements their descendants would consider unsurmountable, they achieved a vast degree of knowledge. Only three daughters in the family lived to reach years of womanhood and married. Those who died early in life are buried beside their parents at Centre church. Issue: 21. i. MARY ANN McCORD, b.

Mary McCord3 (Agnes McKinney McCord2, Joseph MacKenzie1) was born July 28, 1777, in Sherman's Valley, now Perry Co., Penna., died August 23, 1843, at North East, Erie Co., Penna.; married April 22, 1794, Thomas Robinson, born 1773 in Sherman's Valley, died July 12, 90 1830, at North East, Penna. Philip Robinson, with his sons Samuel and George settled at Manada Gap, a pass in the Kittatinny mountain, sixteen miles from Harrisburg, in a northeasterly direction. About 1753 George crossed the Susquehanna river, and erected his home in Sherman's Valley, on the west side of the mountain., it was necessary in those perilous times to have convenient places of refuge from the Indians, and forts were built on both the farms of Philip and his son George. At Manada Gap, the fort is often mentioned as Philip Robinson's, and some times Samuel Robinson's. In 1756 the Indian outbreaks in the valley became so desperate, that at one time, "the whole of the inhabitants were gathered at a fort at George Robinson's, excepting one family." Their distress and danger became so appalling, that they came into the Cumberland Valley until the enemy deserted that section of country and went further west. Many of the settlers did not recross the mountain, but found greater comfort among the older settlements. The Robinson's returned to their former homes. George Robinson, son of Philip, had ten children, Mary, John, Margaret, Jonathan, Agnes, Sarah, Esther, Martha, George, and Thomas who married Mary McCord. In 1797 he left his wife in Cumberland county and went with his brother-in-law Joseph McCord to the shore of Lake Erie, where in Erie county, then a part of Allegheny county, he decided to locate a claim, and build a cabin for his family. In the autumn they returned, threading their way through the forest, and in the spring of 1798, each took his wife and two children, also James McMann, his wife and one child, to the beautiful region of the lake shore. Between three and four hundred miles they traversed the wilderness on horseback, and found their cabins as they left them six months before. The country soon filled with populace, and as soon as possible a church was established at North East, with Thomas Robinson a ruling elder. His wife was a generous, loving, unselfish character.

Blaine, born 1776, died February 18, 1817, at North East, Penna. In 1800 he took his wife and oldest child to Erie county and settled near the shore of the lake, where his descendants lived for many years. He was a nephew of Colonel Ephraim Blaine, who valiantly served his country during the Revolutionary War. He entered the service as a colonel, belonging to the Pennsylvania line. He was with Washington at Valley Forge, and aided greatly in relieving the distress of the soldiers. Their friendship was warm and lasting, and they were together during many of the most trying scenes of the strife. In 1778 he was appointed to the post of "commissary general of the Northern Department." His district extended from Maryland northward, including Pennsylvania, New Jersey, New York and New England, and in this capacity he won meritorious distinction. After the close of the war, he retired to his estate at Middlesex, Cumberland Co., Penna., where in 1794 he entertained Washington and his suite, when they were called to the interior of the state on matters pertaining to the Whisky Insurrection. He was one of the original members of the Pennsylvania Society of the Cincinnati. He married first Rebecca Galbraith, and secondly Mrs. Duncan, widow of Judge Duncan of Carlisle, Penna. He was a hero of the Revolution, and died in i808. His descendants are distinguished in all the prominent walks of life. The father of 92 Alexander. T. Blaine was William, a brother of Colonel Ephraim Blaine, and had three children, Isabella, Alexander T. and Ephraim. The Blaine-McCord union united two strong forces of the Scotch-Irish blood.

Their son James took up a large tract of land on the lake shore, and lived on it during his lifetime. Around him were families of the same name, and friends who assisted in clearing the wilderness and building his house. He was patriotic, and served as colonel in the War of 1812. He instilled the same spirit in the hearts of his children, and taught them lessons of loyalty and devotion to home and country. With his wife, he was given to hospitality, and their home was the center of the warmest cordiality and most bounteous entertainment, where guests were made abundantly welcome and left his fireside feeling it was good to have been there. They were earnest in all the pursuits of life, and left a legacy of helpful memories to those about them. They were members of the Presbyterian church, and are buried at North East, beside scores of their kindred. Their children were all born near North East, but removed to different parts of the country after marriage, and became prominent and influential. 94 Issue: i. JOSEPH McCORD MOORHEAD, b.
